The west patio that cooks at five
What changes through the year?
The same furniture in the same place, twelve times.
Through the year
September gives you 2 usable hours here. January gives you 0.
Same furniture, same place, different geometry. That is why a seasonal setup is an operating decision rather than restlessness.
Each month is read on the 30th, or the last day of a shorter month. Same day as the year card. Not a forecast for that date.
